Lessons I have learned from my father This pittance I have earned is all I can muster 'Cause people remind me Of other times that help me At a knife edge or a roof ledge Let's go our separate ways Let's not bother To speak about the void Only the weather To me you are nothing more it seems Than a bridge of sighs, redundant tides, hopeless times And this thought should pass Just as quick as it came It's making me uneasy and it's making me feel weak I was wrapped up in myself You were a distraction Oh, I was lost Very weak When you found me This lesson I have learned Lies like timber Waiting to be burned or built with To me you are nothing more it seems Than a bridge of sighs, redundant tides, hopeless times And this thought should pass Just as quick as it came It's making me uneasy and it's making me feel weak I want to come home to an empty bed And sleep Ground, ground Swallow me down, down, down Swallow me ground, ground, ground Swallow me down, down, down Swallow me down, down, down Swallow me down, down, down Swallow me down, down, down Swallow me ground, ground, ground Swallow me ground, ground, ground Swallow me down, down, down Swallow me ground
